So my slaves have recently been away on holiday.
A holiday is when they go somewhere that isn’t here, and someone else comes here to look after us.
It’s all a bit strange really.
Where do they go?
Plus holidays don’t seem like a nice thing, because the big slave is always so grumpy after the holiday.
For example she says things like;
‘Stop feeding Eddi carrot. You saw the photos of the enormous slices of carrot that the pet sitter gave him while we were away. No carrots for a month. Plus we are all going on a diet as of now’.
Like it is somehow my fault that she sat around in the sunshine for 2 weeks and ate too many carrots (or whatever it is that slaves eat when they are on holiday :hmm:).
Plus the pet sitter didn’t really give us too much carrot - the big slave is just very mean with her carrot servings.

The other confusing thing about holidays is something know as ‘postcards’.
Every time they go away my little slave sends me a postcard.
When she gets home she cuddles me and tells me she sent me a postcard.
The postcard doesn’t arrive until ages after she gets here, so I don’t understand why the postcard comes later and on it’s own.
Why doesn’t my little slave bring me the postcard instead?
Plus you aren’t allowed to eat postcards, so they aren’t much of a gift. Postcards are for clipping to the front of my cage where I can’t eat them, which makes them quite boring actually.

Slaves can be very confusing sometimes.
It is lucky we have this Forum to talk about their peculiar behaviour. :lol!:

Love Eddi

Oh Eddi stay strong! I have yet to experience this "holiday" or "postcard" but I can only assume it's quite trecherous and cruel.

I suggest peeing on them to show your displeasure, just for a week or two. At the end of the day they have to learn what is and what isn't appropriate behaviour.

If you need any more tips you can pick up my books, "How To Train A Human In 10 Days" or "Get Your Own Way In One Wheek" from any good retailer, it only costs 3 blueberries and a tomato!

Best wishes,

Iggy.
 
Dear Eddi,

“Holiday” is when the slaves go into a sort of “Quarantine” or extended “slave vet” stay. They probably had mites or something so had to go to the medical cage so as not to infest you :vom::vom::vom::vom::vom:. Hoomans are such disgusting creatures and the fact their fur changes in color and texture every day is just bizarre...maybe it’s a sign they should groom more.

I was given a fish stick tonight for no other reason other than “it’s a leftover!” Sometimes we get them as a treat but I always assumed the chef cooked them especially, not that they were surplus! Anyway I had to share the whole thing with 3 other rats who bunk with me, oh the injustice. Still I managed to climb off with the bigger piece and only Mycroft dared to try and steal it...he didn’t succeed because I reminded him who runs this cage.

The great carrot fiasco sounds almost as bad as the blueberry shortage of 2017! Thankfully we STILL have some blueberries here thanks to our slave hoarding them over the warm season. She is “almost” as smart as us sometimes but I admit it took some training and I almost completely gave up on her.

If you ever need some Blueberries smuggled over I am sure me and my boys can find a way.

Regards
Tonto & his underlings.

Ps. This whole “postcard” thing sounds like a ploy to keep you distracted from the lack of fresh carrots and blueberries.
 
Hi Eddi - Groucho here. I'm fed up getting chased by Chicco, so I think you should come and stay with me instead. Your slaves are clearly restricting your diet to keep you desperate for food. The yoomin who fed you obviously knows better what you like, so they can come and visit us with lots of carrots. You can bring Oreo if you want too...but not Ruby. I've heard she's a bit of a madam.
 
Dear Eddi,
You need to have words with the pet sitter. What kind of darn fool sends pictures of you eating contraband to the Big Slave? You need to re-educate the pet sitter. Only photos of you eating hay and perhaps a handful of grass should be sent as evidence of your wellbeing to the slaves.
And as for holidays, you are right that big slaves all round the world are grumpy when they come back home. All that unpacking, washing and squeezing into “ever so slightly tighter than they were before you went away” jeans can cause a bit of a sense of humour failure. But I’m sure that she was thrilled to see you and your lady friends - she will have missed you more than you know.
Please be brave and help cheer your Big Slave up.
